I think for me, I experience music as a powerful
00:00:08.259 --> 00:00:12.859
antidote to suffering and to ugliness. And I
00:00:12.859 --> 00:00:21.780
feel a strong desire to help create beauty. And
00:00:21.780 --> 00:00:26.300
as a pianist, I find beauty in variety, in new
00:00:26.300 --> 00:00:31.640
ways of seeing and hearing. in exploring the
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:36.320
full capabilities of our instrument. Playing
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.060
new music for me is like being a part of a living
00:00:39.060 --> 00:00:44.320
process. Something new has to come out of something
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:49.200
old. It's the only natural way and I think new
00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:53.280
music does this for me and I enjoy also the community
00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:57.420
of new music. It becomes less about us, I think,
00:00:57.420 --> 00:01:01.299
as performers and more about what we are presenting.
00:01:01.840 --> 00:01:05.599
